Congratulations - Good Work !  This will definitely help GNU Fortran to 
win the hearts and minds (I must have heard this phrase before - I can't 
have come up with it on my own ;-) of Fortran users.

Most of them don't even know this is an enhancement to the '95 Standard, 
and tend to complain our implementation "is not complete".

Thanks !
